Match Events

  • 0' And we are off! Lincoln City FC vs Wigan Athletic FC — let the football do the talking.
  • 5' Bailey Cadamarteri has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Joe Hugill suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' Dom Jefferies, a Wales , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 20' Silko Thomas needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 25' Lincoln City FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 30' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 35' Ethan Erhahon is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Lincoln City FC tonight.
  • 40' Lincoln City FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Wigan Athletic FC backline.
  • 45' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Adam Jackson.
  • 50' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 51' The referee has no hesitation. James Carragher is booked for Wigan Athletic FC — card on 51.
  • 56' England international Matthew Smith has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 59' Wigan Athletic FC make a change. Joe Hugill trudges off to be replaced by Callum McManaman on 59 minutes.
  • 63' Bailey Cadamarteri makes way for Jovon Makama at the 63 minute mark. A tactical switch from Lincoln City FC.
  • 68' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Lincoln City FC and Wigan Athletic FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 73' Wigan Athletic FC is showing some good football. However, Wigan Athletic FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 76' Scott Smith is ready to make an impact after coming on for Thelo Aasgaard at the 76 minute mark.
  • 80' Babajide Adeeko is ready to make an impact after coming on for James Carragher at the 80 minute mark.
  • 81' Lincoln City FC ring the changes. Dom Jefferies has done his job and it is now time for Erik Ring to step up.
  • 84' Tendayi Darikwa has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 84.
  • 89' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
